No More Grayscale!

14/01/2014


After pondering my first picture, I decided to take it in a different direction. As I said in my first post, I decided to stick to black and white and add colour after. I also think I'd like to see where the images take me in regards the look of the images. I think The Library of Babel is quite fantastical but also deep with religious and philosophical meaning……something I wish to explore.

So…..second image.


I think this technique works better than the first image, so I'll leave the grayscale out and let a separate layer of colour do the tonal work.


I'm happy with this technique, now to add the rest of the elements in: hexagon, background etc.


I liked the image but wasn't completely satisfied and decided to get something else in.


The ancient text in the background completes the picture in my opinion. MCV is quoted in the short story as a sequence of letters that is repeated over and over again. Must do something else with this.
